Photo of kayaker+whale

March 21, 2005 6:01 PM

Foggy photo of a kayaker with a whale surfacing alongside. Anyone remember where?

It was quite misty so both were just silhouettes. It's the perfect picture to make a birthday card from this afternoon so I am particularly keen to track it down. I think it was an entry in the Digital section of a photography competition but I may be wrong.
I thought there might have been a FPP regarding the competition itself but have been unable to find that either - despite sifting through the search/tag results one by one.
'tis appreciated.

Thanks edgeways but it's not amongst that lot. At least in the first dozen google pages.
It was kind of 'arty' - hence the thinking that it was a photography competion.
I'm increasingly sure it was linked to from Metafilter so maybe I'll re-try the tag system.

Unfortunately the particular photo isn't amongst these either. I have tried google.
The photo I'm looking for was taken from side-on so that the silhouette of the kayaker sort of mirrors that of the orca fin - all shot through a mist so it is only very muted colours.
